Question:
A pump is to move water from a lake into a large, pressurized tank as shown in Fig. P5.109 at a rate of \(1000 \mathrm{gal}\) in \(10 \mathrm{~min}\) or less. Will a pump that adds \(3 \mathrm{hp}\) to the water work for this purpose? Support your answer with appropriate calculations. Repeat the problem if the tank were pressurized to 3 , rather than 2 , atmospheres.
